Wild creatures in the rushes? (5)
I believe the answer is:
hares
This clue might be a double definition.
'wild creatures' is the first definition.
The answer and definition can be both animals as well as being plural nouns.
Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'rushes?' is the second definition.
The definition and answer can be both to do with motion as well as being verbs in their -s form.
Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'in the' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for hares that I've seen before include "Fast animals" , "Shares out the swift little animals" , "Swift long-eared mammals" , "Fleet-footed animals" , "Rabbit-like creatures" .)
